OBIEE 12c : Any place in RPD where we can assign/mark a physical data source as OLTP ?

User_INLWQ

Hi Gurus,

I would like to know if there is any place in OBIEE RPD where we can mention (assign/designate) a physical data source as OLTP ?

Please share inputs.

Thanks.

Hi,

What do you expect to be the result of such "flag"/attribute/designation?

A source is a source, OBIEE doesn't care much what the source is. You have all the various settings available to set some attributes based on what the source and how you want it to be used, but OLTP or not doesn't change anything for OBIEE.

Taking a step back, what do you need to achieve by doing doing this?

Already asked twice, but this request is too bizarre: What for?! What do you expect to gain from this?

The functionality won't change one bit and if you just want to be able to *see* what's OLTP and what not, then call your sources "DWH" and "OTLP". It's a name. It has functional impact. You can call them "Slartibartfast" and "Vroomfondel" if you like.

Thanks Gianni, Joel, Chris.

Sorry my fault, i meant to ask if there are additional config/setting changes need to be done in RPD or front end to connect to OLTP sources like EBS, Siebel versus an Oracle or Teradata or some other relational data warehouse.

You don't have to do anything. As @Gianni Ceresa said, OBIEE does not really care what the data source is. It's main usage is to abstract that complexity from end users.

"Oracle" isn't a relational data warehouse. It's just a database. Most Siebel installations run on Oracle databases and store their data in Oracle databases.

What's different is HOW the data is stored. Normalized vs denormalized. Star schemas. Current vs. historized.
